Urban Flooding and Infrastructure Resilience in Lusaka

Abstract

This study analyzes flooding patterns and infrastructure vulnerabilities in Lusaka's rapidly urbanizing areas. Using hydrological modeling and community-based vulnerability assessments, we identify high-risk zones and evaluate the effectiveness of existing drainage systems. The research proposes nature-based solutions and infrastructure investments to enhance urban flood resilience.
